Goebbels rises.
just a historical reminder for no apparent reason and because there are no echoes here at all… ** ** around things I find interesting.

**The Great Depression, exacerbated by Brüning's policy** of deflation, led to a surge in unemployment.[11]
On 30 January 1933, Hindenburg appointed Adolf Hitler as chancellor to head a coalition government; **his Nazi Party held two out of ten cabinet seats**.
Von Papen, as vice-chancellor and Hindenburg's confidant, was to serve as the éminence grise who would keep Hitler under control; **these intentions severely underestimated Hitler's political ambitions**.
By the end of March 1933, the Reichstag Fire Decree and the Enabling Act of 1933 were used in the **perceived state of emergency to effectively grant the new chancellor broad power to act outside parliamentary control**..
Hitler promptly used these powers to **thwart constitutional governance and suspend civil liberties**, which brought about **the swift collapse of democracy at the federal and state level**, and the creation of a one-party dictatorship under his leadership.”
… still a lot of work to be done to reverse the progression here…

And lets end it properly:
"Until the end of World War II in Europe in 1945, the Nazis governed Germany under the pretense that **all the extraordinary measures and laws they implemented were constitutional**; notably, there was never an attempt to replace or substantially amend the Weimar Constitution. Nevertheless, Hitler's seizure of power (Machtergreifung) had effectively ended the republic, replacing its constitutional framework with Führerprinzip, the principle that "the Führer's word is above all written law”.”
